The New International Version began with
one man’s vision for a faithful rendering
of the Bible in contemporary English –
and today is the world’s best selling
modern-English translation of the Bible
that delivers the best combination of
accuracy and readability.

The NIV delivers the best balance of accuracy to the original languages and clarity of meaning in contemporary English.

"Literally dozens of Bible translations have come out in English.Yet I continue to use the NIV for three reasons. For its accuracy, its simplicity, and its popularity."
— Rick Warren, Author, Pastor, Saddleback Church

"The NIV is tailor-made for the way English is spoken
around the world today... it is the most popular translation today because it remains faithful to the original Scriptures while being easy for people to understand."
— Charles Stanley, First Baptist Church in Atlanta; Founder, InTouch Ministries

"I take my NIV Bible is with me every time I stand up to teach. But even more importantly, it is the version I’ve used to memorize and internalize God’s holy Word.”
— Lysa TerKeurst, Author and Speaker

"I’ve used the NIV as a new believer and as a scholar. It is the gold standard of English translations, still a delight
to read, to use in preaching and teaching... It is the Bible
for the English-speaking world, from Australia to Zimbabwe.”
— Dr. Michael F. Bird, Lecturer in Theology, Ridley College, Melbourne, Australia

"The NIV is still the best-selling English translation of the Bible
in spite of the fact that there are other good alternatives out there. It maintains its place in the hearts and minds of those who love Scripture because it faithfully reflects God’s ancient message to today’s readers.”
— Tremper Longman III, Robert H. Gundry Professor of Biblical Studies, Westmont College

"The NIV has become the “go to” text of the Bible for me as a New Testament scholar, a preacher, and as a Christian disciple.”
— Dr. Peter Phillips, HEA, Director and Research Fellow in Digital Theology, CODEC Research Centre
for Digital Theology, University of Durham
